ANNUAL FUND LETTER
November 6, 2025
​
Dear Music Works Northwest Supporters and Friends,
​
I hope this message finds you well. Your continued support has been the heartbeat of the Music Works family, and we’re deeply grateful for the role you play in our community.
​
We’re fortunate to have an extraordinary team of faculty and staff—many of whom have been teaching with us for over a decade. This year, we welcomed several new talented members, including Music Works alum Luke Sorensen, who has returned to inspire the next generation of musicians.
We’re proud to share that all our programs experienced growth this year—from private lessons to summer camps. Our momentum continues to build. A major highlight was receiving the Doors Open Grant from 4Culture, which has had a transformative impact on our organization and our ability to serve the community.
​
At Music Works Northwest, we’re more than a nonprofit music school—we’re passionate Advocates for the Arts. Our mission is to make music accessible to all. But our mission is far from complete. At Music Works Northwest, we believe music is for everyone—regardless of age, ability, or financial circumstance. Through inclusive education and a large variety of programs, we transform lives every day. Your gift ensures that no child is turned away because of cost and that music remains a powerful force for connection and healing in our region.

​
-
Largest summer camp enrollment since 2019
-
Free tune-up programs in public schools
